Answer:

The median is located at the 2.5th position, which is halfway between the values 52 and 57.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Median is referred to as the Middle term of a set of Data when ordered in Ascending/Descending order.

Consider the numbers 50, 230, 52, and 57

Arranging them in an Ascending Order

50, 52, 57, 230

The number of data in the set is even.

Dividing the data into two halves (50, 52 and 57, 230)

The median is halfway between the two halves.

The median is located at the 2.5th position, which is halfway between the values 52 and 57.

Answer:

y=-4x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

linear function, y = mx+c

the y intercept of the graph,c, is -2

thus y = mx - 2

substitute a point on the graph into the equation, (2,-1)

2 = m(-1) -2

m = - 4

thus equation of graph is y = -4x-2

Two circular cylinders are similar. The ratio of the areas of their bases is 9:4. Find the ratio of the volumes of the similar s
OleMash [197]

Answer:

27 : 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 2 similar figures with ratio of sides a : b, then

ratio of areas = a² : b² and

ratio of volumes = a³ : b³

Here the ratio of areas = 9 : 4, thus

ratio of sides = \sqrt{9} : \sqrt{4} = 3 : 2

ratio of volumes = 3³ : 2³ = 27 : 8

Two machines are used for filling glass bottles with a soft-drink beverage. The filling process have known standard deviations s
stellarik [79]

Answer:

a. We reject the null hypothesis at the significance level of 0.05

b. The p-value is zero for practical applications

c. (-0.0225, -0.0375)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the bottles from machine 1 be the first population and the bottles from machine 2 be the second population.  

Then we have n_{1} = 25, \bar{x}_{1} = 2.04, \sigma_{1} = 0.010 and n_{2} = 20, \bar{x}_{2} = 2.07, \sigma_{2} = 0.015. The pooled estimate is given by  

\sigma_{p}^{2} = \frac{(n_{1}-1)\sigma_{1}^{2}+(n_{2}-1)\sigma_{2}^{2}}{n_{1}+n_{2}-2} = \frac{(25-1)(0.010)^{2}+(20-1)(0.015)^{2}}{25+20-2} = 0.0001552

a. We want to test H_{0}: \mu_{1}-\mu_{2} = 0 vs H_{1}: \mu_{1}-\mu_{2} \neq 0 (two-tailed alternative).  

The test statistic is T = \frac{\bar{x}_{1} - \bar{x}_{2}-0}{S_{p}\sqrt{1/n_{1}+1/n_{2}}} and the observed value is t_{0} = \frac{2.04 - 2.07}{(0.01246)(0.3)} = -8.0257. T has a Student's t distribution with 20 + 25 - 2 = 43 df.

The rejection region is given by RR = {t | t < -2.0167 or t > 2.0167} where -2.0167 and 2.0167 are the 2.5th and 97.5th quantiles of the Student's t distribution with 43 df respectively. Because the observed value t_{0} falls inside RR, we reject the null hypothesis at the significance level of 0.05

b. The p-value for this test is given by 2P(T0 (4.359564e-10) because we have a two-tailed alternative. Here T has a t distribution with 43 df.

c. The 95% confidence interval for the true mean difference is given by (if the samples are independent)

(\bar{x}_{1}-\bar{x}_{2})\pm t_{0.05/2}s_{p}\sqrt{\frac{1}{25}+\frac{1}{20}}, i.e.,

-0.03\pm t_{0.025}0.012459\sqrt{\frac{1}{25}+\frac{1}{20}}

where t_{0.025} is the 2.5th quantile of the t distribution with (25+20-2) = 43 degrees of freedom. So

-0.03\pm(2.0167)(0.012459)(0.3), i.e.,

(-0.0225, -0.0375)
